This was my family's first appointment at Swift Creek Dental Center. And it went swimmingly. A shout out to Ms. Aleada, my dental hygienist, who took the extra time to create a cleaning protocol that would work with our dietary needs. We truly appreciate this individualized care. Sweet friendly office staff, no waiting, definitely worth a try if you are searching for a new dental office.

The staff there is pretty much my extended family. I cannot think of a circumstance where I would not recommend them.
Also, super professional and efficient. But they’re still laid back and fun. One of the only medical/dental offices that puts me totally at ease. I would give them extra stars if I could.

I would recommend looking elsewhere if you are interested in getting veneers. I wanted to do 2, they suggested 4 to look more uniform. No problem, although it was approximately $2,000 more. One tooth they suggested has been a nightmare. My veneer they did came off for the first time less than a year from when it was put on, and of course when I was out of the country.
They fixed it when I got back. Soon after it came off again for the 3rd time. They put it back on for a 3rd time. Recently, I was visiting a relative who has been a dentist for over 30 years. She looked at my tooth and I quote, "That tooth is butchered." She attached the veneer once again (4th time in less than 3 years), but said it is falling off because there is so little enamel left of the tooth to attach to, and explained it will need a crown if it falls off again. Yep, as of today the veneer has fallen off again for the 5th time. This has all happened in less than 3 years of getting them done. Guess, I am going to have to get a crown on what was originally a healthy tooth.

Top Notch Dental Team top to bottom. My visit started with the welcoming knowledgeable Front Office, to the kind skilled Assistants and most importantly they have extremely gentle Dentists! I recently had to have my first dental crown and it was a pleasurable experience - I know that sounds crazy as no one loves having dental work. Trust me this is an amazing Practice who treated me like family vs a number. GO check them out!

Without a doubt Dr. Koelmel and staff are awesome. We are so glad that we were referred to this office by one of the dental assistants, Courtney, who happens to work there and we met by going to the same restaurant on a regular basis. I am so glad to have Alida clean my teeth every 6 months. Dr. Koelmel has done a great job on making a crown for me and just recently being there for me when I encountered an emergency of having a long-time crown of mine drop out on a Saturday night.
Just so happened Dr. Koelmel was on call that weekend and had me arrive first thing Monday morning and took care of cementing my crown back. WHAT A RELIEF! The office staff is outstanding also. Thanks for all you do! You ALL are the BEST!

This entire practice is wonderful. Melody helped me fill out my paperwork since I just had elbow surgery and then cleaned my teeth, she is a sweetheart. Dr. Estes's assistant helped to get my additional X-rays, she made what could have been a painful experience actually fun, we both were laughing and before we knew it all of the X-rays were done. Dr. Estes is very well educated and answered all of my questions he made everything easy to understand. Dr Koelmel must have recognized me as a new patient when he was behind the front desk when I was checking out, he even asked how my arm was doing since I still have a very obvious sling that I have to wear following my surgery. This practice is full of wonderful people from the front desk clear thru to the doctors. You will not go wrong having them as your dental team!

Highly recommend this group! Was a long time patient of Dr K & he recommended them when he retired. Perfect transition. Same staff & great dentists. I don't mind going to the dentist which is something I thought I'd never say. They treat you like family & are so patient & kind. Trust what they do & say. You can't go wrong here!

The best dentist, dental hygienists and staff. Dr. Estes and Courtney are very patient with me especially I've been having issues with my tooth for some time now. The receptionist are on top of things and they will call and text you for an incoming appointment. You'll never go wrong with them. I've been with them for 7 years and I am very with their service. Keep it up!
